I'm sure this'll shock you, I think Patriot blow. I love Oi, but there's waaaaaaay too much of it that is
beyond generic, so it takes a really good band to make the style work. Patriot definitely don't cut it for me. I've known a few people over the years
to dig them, but honestly, with so much music out there, I can't be bothered with anything unless it's really worth it. I used to collect genres, if
it was HC, I had to have it, if it was Oi, I needed it, so on and so forth. Eventually I got to a point where I couldn't enjoy the good stuff I had
because I had to wade through all the mediocre crap I had accumulated and it got ridiculous. Now I only get records from bands that I'm actually
impressed by. I'll put a lot of effort into tracking down music from bands I feel are worthwhile, but I'll pass on the lesser stuff even if it falls
in my lap. |
I like Patriot though, standard,
but good at what they do formy almighty dollar,and close by regionally too.
